Collection: Secrecy, Sabotage, and Aiding the Resistance: How Anglo-American Cooperation Shaped World War II Volumes Britain and the US in Africa, 1942-1944
These records focus on the 'Massingham' base in Algeria which served as a starting point for missions to France. These papers also include territorial negotiations between the US and the UK. Tunisia and French North Africa were difficult areas for the British to operate in, so co-operation with the Free French and American forces was vital. Operational discussions also form a significant part of these records.
